A popular summer beer made in Georgia is back. Here’s where to find it in Macon.
Popular Georgia craft brewery Wild Leap Brew Co. has re-released an ice cream-inspired beer that might take you back to the days of your childhood.
The Truck Chaser Creamsicle Double IPA began returning to shelves near the end of January, the company said.
The beer, first brewed in 2019, is made with a flavor combination of ripe oranges, vanilla bean and milk sugar. It is one of Wild Leap’s most requested to return beers of all time, according to the company.
The beer has received a 4.1 out of 5 rating calculated from 2,270 reviews on Untappd, a geosocial networking service and app where users can discuss and review beers.
“We’ve had so much fun creating this beer and fine-tuning the blend of hops and creamy milkshake flavor,” Wild Leap co-founder Anthony Rodriguez said in a statement. “We’re excited it’s back and we can’t wait to share what we’ve got in store for 2020.”
The beer can be found in the Wild Leap tasting room as well as stores, bars and restaurants throughout Georgia. According to the brewery’s beverage finder map, you can buy the beer at these locations in Macon:
▪ Macon Beverage Outlet, 4580 Log Cabin Drive
▪ Houston Spirits and Tobacco, 5615 Houston Road
Truck Chaser Creamsicle will only be around for a limited time, Wild Leap said.
Founded in 2017, Wild Leap was named the country’s best new brewery in USA Today’s 10Best 2019 awards. The brewery is located in LaGrange, Georgia, about an hour north of Columbus.
